"Too Human"
For: Xbox 360
From: Silicon Knights/Microsoft
ESRB Rating: Teen (blood, language,
mild suggestive themes, violence)


By Billy O'Keefe
McClatchy-Tribune (MCT)

The story behind "Too Human's" creation — nine years, three platforms, countless restarts and even some pending litigation — is packed with more mythos than the game's actual story. The long process also leaves an indelible mark on a final product that's both unrelenting in the pursuit of its vision and saturated with design choice that were more acceptable when development began than they are today.

The heart and soul of "Human" centers around its gameplay mechanics, which most closely resemble those of the "Diablo" franchise of PC games. "Human," like "Diablo," is a dungeon crawler in which the primary objective, beyond carrying out the storyline, is to slay thousands of enemies, build up your character's attributes and hopefully stumble some one-of-a-kind piece of weaponry or armor.
From wikipedia:
Adolph Frederick Rupp (September 2, 1901 – December 10, 1977) was one of the most successful coaches in the history of American college basketball. Rupp ranks third (behind Bobby Knight and Dean Smith), in total victories by a men's NCAA Division I college coach, winning 876 games in 41 years of coaching. He set a remarkable standard of excellence at Kentucky that exists to this day. Rupp is also second among all coaches in all-time winning percentage (.822), trailing only Clair Bee. Adolph F. Rupp was enshrined in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame on April 13, 1969.
